ALFRED M. ACKLIN, OF PITTSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA.
CONVEYERBELT APPARATUS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 702,273, dated June 10, 1902.
m Application filed January 6, 1902. Serial No. 88,476'. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern;
Be it known that I, ALFRED M. ACKLIN, a
residentV of Pittsburg, in the county of Alle-` gheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Con' veyer-Belt Apparatus; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description thereof.
My invention relates to conveyer-belt apparatus, and has special reference to the carrying-pulleysupon which the. conveyer-belt is run to form the trough.
The object of my invention is to provide a simple means for .mounting the pulleys in their supports, produce lless friction to the Working parts, and' enable the parts to be well lubricated at all times.
My invention consists, generally'stated, in
the novel arrangement, construction, and comf bination of parts, as hereinafter more specifically set forth and described, and particularly pointed out in theclaims.
- To enable others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to construct and use my improved conveyer-belt apparatus, I will describe the same more fully, referring to the accompanying drawings, in which Y Figure 1 shows an end view, partly in section, of the conveyor-belt apparatus with the pulleys andtheir support and showing the manner of carrying the belt. Fig. 2 is a cross-section through the support. a cross-section through one of the inclined supports. Fig. 4 is an end view of the inclined support, and lig.l 5 is an enlarged detailview of a portion of the inclined support.
Like characters'herein indicate like parts in each of the figures of the drawings.
As illustrated in the drawings, 1 represents the main support, which is provided with the vertical brackets or standards 2-and is secured to a transverse plank 3 by means of bolts 3'. The standards 2 are each provided with a seat 4 for the bearingblock 5, and a-` shaft 7, carrying the pulley 8, is mounted within these blocks 5.
Projecting outwardly from the standards 2 are angular or inclined supports 12, which are provided with the sockets or openings 13 therein for the reception of the shafts 14 on the side pulleys 15, and an oil-slot 16 is formed within each support 12 at one side of the `such shafts are provided with '-back by means bearings 22, hung from the plank 3 by meansA Fig. 3 isl shafts 14, which opens into an angular space 17 at the outer end 12' of the inclined supports 12 and is provided with the inclined bottom'18,extending downward toward the shafts 14. The side pulleys 15 are cast around the shafts 14 and formthe hubs 15', fitting over the outer ends of said shafts 14 and connecting the web portion 19 on said pulleys, and a recess 14' therein for the reception of a bead 15" on saidcaps 15 to assist in holding such shafts in place within the pulleys 15, while a sleeve or collar 2O is formed on the web portion 19, which fits over and around the outer end 12 of the angular orinclned supports 12 to prevent any dirt or dust from dropping around the shafts 14.
The conveyer-belt A passes over the pul leys 8 and 15 to ing the material, and such belt A is carried ofV rollers 21, mounted in of the stringers'23.
The use and operation of myimproved con7 veyer-belt apparatus is as follows: The belt A is moved by any suitable means, and such belt is curved or bent to'form the trough B by means of the side pulleys 15, extending up at an angle or incline from the angular orinclined supports 12 the trough B thereof in any suitable manner, and such belt A will act to revolve the pulleys- 8 and 15 in passing over the same, While the return portion of said belt A'will be carried back by the rollers 21. `Oil is placed Within the openings 13 in the inclined supports`12 when needed to a sucient height,
and the shafts `14 on-the pulleys l5 are in serted into such Openings 13, which will cause such oilto move along up said shafts 14 through the slots 16 to lubricate said shafts, and in case anyoil is worked along up said shafts 14 to the outer end 12' of the inclined supports 12 it will be caught in the annular space 17, formed in such outer ends 12', and be prevented from dropping or wasting.
It will thus be seen that my improved'conveyer-belt apparatus is cheap and simple in its construction and operation and by its use the wear to the'parts, loss of power, and expense of running are reduced to a minimum.
for'm a trough B for conveyon the standards 2. The material to be carried by the belt A is fed to ICQ The parts can be easily removed and replaced for repairing or for new parts when desired,
. and all the parts can be kept well lubricated parts of the apparatus may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or sacrificing any of its advantages.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
I. In a support for a conveyer-belt, the combination of inclined standards having sockets or openings therein the lower ends of which are closed, shafts adapted to fit within said sockets or openings and be solely sustained by the same, and pulleys, wheels or rollers fitting around said shafts.
2. In a support fora conveyer-belt, the combination of inclined standards having sockets or openings therein the lower ends of which are closed, shafts adapted to fit within saidsockets or openings and by the same, and pulleys, cured to said shafts.
3. In a support for a conveyer-belt, the combination of inclined standards having sockets or openings therein the lower ends of which are closed, Ysaid standards being provided with slots communicating with said sockets or openings, shafts adapted to t within said sockets or openings and be solely sustained by the same, said shafts engaging with said slots, and pulleys, wheels or rollers fitting around said shafts.
4. In asupport for a conveyer-belt, the combination of inclined standards having sockets or openings therein the lowerl ends of which are closed, said standards being provided with be solely sustained wheels or rollers seed to fit within said sockets or openings,
slots communicating with vsaid sockets or openings, shafts adapted to lit within said sockets or openings and be solely sustained by the same, said shafts engaging with said slots, and pulleys, wheels or rollers secured to said shafts.
5. In a support for a conveyer-belt, the combination of inclined standards having sockets or openings therein the lower ends of` which are closed, said standards provided with recesses on the outer ends thereof, shafts adaptand pulleys, wheels or rollers fitting around said shafts.
v 6. In asupportforaconveyer-belt, the combination of inclined standards having sockets or openings therein the lower ends of which are closed, said standards provided with recesses on the outerends thereof, shafts adapted to fit within said sockets or openings, and pulleys, wheels or rollers secured to said shafts. l
7. In a support for a conveyer-belt, the combination of inclined standards having sockets or openings therein the lower ends of which are closed, said standards provided with slots communicating with said sockets or openings and leading into recesses on the outer ends of said standards, shafts adapted to it within said sockets or openings and be solely sustained by the same, and pulleys, wheels or rollers fitting around said shafts.
8. In a support for a conveyer-belt, the combination of inclined standards having sockets or openings therein the lower ends of which are closed, said standards provided with slots communicating with said sockets or openings and leading into recesses on the outer ends of said standards, shafts adapted to fit within said sockets or openings and be solely sustained by the same, and pulleys, wheels or rollers secured to said shafts.
In testimony whereof I, the said ALFRED M. ACKLIN, have hereunto set my hand.
ALFRED M. ACKLIN.
